HLA Attachments - 48" Compact Skid Steer Swale Bucket 5" - Grading and Ditch Work [LA-SBSWC48BO500]

Shape drainage swales and handle precise grading work with the HLA Attachments 48-inch Compact Skid Steer Swale Bucket. Model SBSWC48BO500 combines the SBSWC48 compact bucket with HLA’s BO500 universal skid-steer quick-attach mount. Its purpose-built V-bottom profile forms a 5-inch-deep swale, making it well suited to drainage, landscaping, grading and ditch work. The compact 24-inch-deep by 13-inch-high body provides a 5.0-cubic-foot struck capacity, while the round back promotes easy filling and cleanout. A flat top also serves as a convenient visual level indicator during operation.

Designed for Swale and Drainage Work

Unlike a conventional flat-bottom bucket, the SBSWC48 features a V-bottom design that shapes material into a defined drainage swale. Its 48-inch inside width provides a practical working area for forming shallow channels, maintaining ditches and completing landscape grading tasks. The 5-inch swale depth gives the bucket its specialized profile for controlling surface drainage and shaping consistent runs.

The round-back construction adds strength while helping material flow into and out of the bucket. This design supports efficient filling and reduces material retention during cleanout. For grading operations, the flat top provides the operator with a straightforward reference for monitoring bucket level.

Durable Bucket Construction

The bucket body is built from 3/16-inch material and reinforced with 1/4-inch end plates. At the working edge, a 3/4-inch by 4-inch bevelled cutting edge provides a substantial ground-contact surface for cutting, shaping and grading. The complete attachment weighs approximately 290 lb, offering a compact format for compatible skid-steer and compact loader carriers.
